DAN 1:2 And the Lord gave Jehoiakim king of Judah into his hand,

with part of the

vessels of the house of God:which he carried into the land of

Shinar to the house

of his god; and he brought the vessels into the treasure house

of his god.

DAN 1:3 And the king spake unto Ashpenaz the master of his

eunuchs, that he should

bring [certain] of the children of Israel, and of the king's

seed, and of the

DAN 1:4 Children in whom [was] no blemish, but well favoured,

and skilful in all

wisdom, and cunning in knowledge, and understanding science, and

such as [had]

ability in them to stand in the king's palace, and whom they

might teach the

learning and the tongue of the Chaldeans. <g all> <g blemish>

DAN 1:5 And the king appointed them a daily provision of the

king's meat, and of

the wine which he drank:so nourishing them three years, that at

the end thereof

they might stand before the king. <g appointed> <g before> <g

DAN 1:6 Now among these were of the children of Judah, Daniel,

Hananiah, Mishael,

and Azariah:<g among> <g azariah> <g children> <g daniel>

<g hananiah> <g judah> <g mishael> <g now> <g these>

DAN 1:7 Unto whom the prince of the eunuchs gave names:for he

gave unto Daniel

[ the name] of Belteshazzar; and to Hananiah, of Shadrach; and

to Mishael, of

Meshach; and to Azariah, of Abednego. <g azariah> <g

belteshazzar>

<g daniel> <g eunuchs> <g gave> <g hananiah> <g meshach>

<g mishael> <g name> <g names> <g prince> <g shadrach>

<g whom>

DAN 1:8 But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not

defile himself with

the portion of the king's meat, nor with the wine which he drank:

therefore he

requested of the prince of the eunuchs that he might not defile

himself.

<g daniel> <g defile> <g drank> <g eunuchs> <g heart>

<g himself> <g meat> <g might> <g nor> <g portion>

<g prince> <g purposed> <g requested> <g therefore> <g which>

<g wine> <g with> <g would>

DAN 1:9 Now God had brought Daniel into favour and tender love

with the prince

of the eunuchs. <g brought> <g daniel> <g eunuchs> <g favour>

<g god> <g had> <g into> <g love> <g now> <g prince>

<g tender> <g with>

DAN 1:10 And the prince of the eunuchs said unto Daniel, I fear

my lord the king,

who hath appointed your meat and your drink:for why should he

see your faces

worse liking than the children which [are] of your sort? then

shall ye make [

me] endanger my head to the king. <g appointed> <g are> <g

children>

<g daniel> <g drink> <g endanger> <g eunuchs> <g faces>

<g fear> <g hath> <g head> <g king> <g liking> <g lord>

<g make> <g meat> <g prince> <g said> <g see> <g should>

<g sort> <g than> <g then> <g which> <g who> <g why>

<g worse> <g your>

DAN 1:11 Then said Daniel to Melzar, whom the prince of the

eunuchs had set over

Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, <g azariah> <g daniel>

<g eunuchs> <g had> <g hananiah> <g melzar> <g mishael>

<g over> <g prince> <g said> <g set> <g then> <g whom>

DAN 1:12 Prove thy servants, I beseech thee, ten days; and let

them give us pulse

to eat, and water to drink. <g beseech> <g days> <g drink> <g

eat>

<g give> <g let> <g prove> <g pulse> <g servants> <g ten>

<g water>

DAN 1:13 Then let our countenances be looked upon before thee,

and the countenance

of the children that eat of the portion of the king's meat:and

as thou seest,

deal with thy servants. <g before> <g children> <g countenance>

<g countenances> <g deal> <g eat> <g let> <g looked>

<g meat> <g portion> <g seest> <g servants> <g then>

<g with>

DAN 1:14 So he consented to them in this matter, and proved them

ten days.

<g consented> <g days> <g matter> <g proved> <g so>

<g ten> <g this>

DAN 1:15 And at the end of ten days their countenances appeared

fairer and fatter

in flesh than all the children which did eat the portion of the

king's meat.

<g all> <g appeared> <g children> <g countenances> <g days>

<g did> <g eat> <g end> <g fairer> <g fatter> <g flesh>

<g meat> <g portion> <g ten> <g than> <g which>

DAN 1:16 Thus Melzar took away the portion of their meat, and

the wine that they

should drink; and gave them pulse. <g away> <g drink> <g gave>

<g meat> <g melzar> <g portion> <g pulse> <g should>

<g thus> <g took> <g wine>

DAN 1:17 As for these four children, God gave them knowledge and

skill in all

learning and wisdom:and Daniel had understanding in all visions

and dreams.

<g all> <g children> <g daniel> <g dreams> <g four>

<g gave> <g god> <g had> <g knowledge> <g learning>

<g skill> <g these> <g understanding> <g visions> <g wisdom>

DAN 1:18 Now at the end of the days that the king had said he

should bring them

in, then the prince of the eunuchs brought them in before

Nebuchadnezzar.

<g before> <g bring> <g brought> <g days> <g end>

<g eunuchs> <g had> <g king> <g nebuchadnezzar> <g now>

<g prince> <g said> <g should> <g then>

DAN 1:19 And the king communed with them; and among them all was

found none like

Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah:therefore stood they

before the king.

<g all> <g among> <g azariah> <g before> <g communed>

<g daniel> <g found> <g hananiah> <g king> <g like>

<g mishael> <g none> <g stood> <g therefore> <g with>

DAN 1:20 And in all matters of wisdom [and] understanding, that

the king inquired

of them, he found them ten times better than all the magicians

[and] astrologers

that [were] in all his realm. <g all> <g astrologers> <g better>

<g found> <g inquired> <g king> <g magicians> <g matters>

DAN 1:21 And Daniel continued [even] unto the first year of king

Cyrus.
